Strange stuff happening

This week there's been a few things on my mind of which one I'll leap straight into right now.

Sanriotown.com is a place I visited rather a lot from around 2007 because it had a variety of things under one roof such as a Multiplayer game set in the Sanrio world you could play, a fairly active forum where people of all ages talked about all the different characters tv shows and merchandise, not just Hello Kitty but Twin Little Stars, Chococat and others too.
You could send e-cards - and I certainly did - based on the characters, download screensavers which I also did, have a blog there and have email accounts with your name@any of the sanriocharacters.com such as hello kitty.
All in all it was great place, ideal for a little too if you used a bit of commonsense when it comes to sharing spaces.
Over the years bits have fell off such as the game but this last few weeks not only has the email been down with "Down for service" but the whole site has too like this morning I couldn't connect even to the homepage.
I just get this feeling it's terminal.
Talking of terminal, my Mum's cousin died recently whose funeral was yesterday.
She devoted her life to looking after a severe learning disabled child well into 'adulthood' although to be honest she was only adult in years as in lots of ways she was more like an infant in her speech, relating patterns and play.
Finally at forum a thread about a person who used to post a lot but who seems to have moved on as it were seems to have descended into a personal dispute between three people which is really a bit sad as the reason had nothing to do with the subject just argumentative and super sensitive types seeing more in remarks than intended.
